January 7, 2024 at 4:00 p.m.
Walter “Wally” Benzing, age 78, of Pierceton, passed away on Jan. 4, 2024.
Wally was born on Nov. 2, 1945, to Walter and Betty Agnew Benzing in Hamilton, Ohio, later moving to Gilead, and graduating from North Miami High School. Throughout his life, he brought joy and laughter to all those around him as he had a great sense of humor and rarely knew a stranger.
Wally lived much of his life in Wisconsin where he worked as a forester. A huge part of his career included the opportunity to drive across the countryside exploring new places, new opportunities and hundreds of coffee shops.
Outside of work Wally liked Notre Dame football, country music and being surrounded by his friends. Above all else, Wally was so proud of his son and daughter and grandchildren.
Walter is survived by his children: Greg (Staci) Benzing, of Rochester; and Angie (Joe) Notz, of Rochester; Scott Benzing (fiancée Danielle), of Whitestown; Landon Notz and AJ Notz, both of Rochester; and step-grandchild, Brook Enyeart (fiancé Kyle), of Illinois. In addition, he is survived by his four siblings: Ada (Pete) Gross, of Pierceton; Cindy O’Neal, of West Lafayette; Bob (Marie) Benzing, of Akron; and Bill (Trish) Benzing, of Columbia City; and his uncle, Norm Benzing, of Warsaw.
A Life Celebration for Wally will be held on Saturday, Jan. 20 from 1 to 4 p.m. at The RUWM Church, 1400 W. Center St., Warsaw.
Arrangements are entrusted to Titus Funeral Home & Cremation Services, 2000 Sheridan St., Warsaw, IN 46580.
Flowers may be sent to Titus Funeral Home or in-lieu of flowers donations may be made to “The RUWM Church” World Mission 61.
